Detienen en EE.UU a general ecuatoriano acusado de crímenes de lesa humanidad
El general ecuatoriano Edgar Vaca fue detenido en la capital de EE.UU., a petición de las autoridades del país andino, que le reclaman por su presunta implicación en crímenes de lesa humanidad, informó hoy el Ministerio del Interior de Ecuador en un comunicado.
Vaca y otros nueve generales y coroneles del Ejército y Policía fueron acusados por la Fiscalía General ecuatoriana por su presunta responsabilidad en la tortura, violencia sexual y desaparición forzada de tres exguerrilleros detenidos en 1985 acusados de tener vínculos con el grupo subversivo Alfaro Vive Carajo (AVC).
En ese caso, en el primero de delitos contra la humanidad que llegó a los tribunales ecuatorianos, el pasado 1 de octubre, se ordenó prisión preventiva, arresto domiciliario y prohibición de salir del país para los imputados por delitos de tortura, violencia sexual y desaparición forzada.
Se trata del caso de Susana Cajas, Luis Vaca y Javier Jarrín, quienes fueron detenidos en 1985 durante el Gobierno del fallecido expresidente León Febres Cordero (1984-1988), acusados de estar vinculados a AVC.
Entre 2007 y 2010, el Estado ecuatoriano investigó graves violaciones a los derechos humanos cometidas a partir de la década de los 80, para lo cual conformó la Comisión de la Verdad, uno de cuyos casos es el de Vaca, Cajas y Jarrín
Los tres fueron detenidos de forma "arbitraria", torturados y sometidos a violencia sexual, según la Comisión de la Verdad y Derechos Humanos de la Fiscalía.
Cajas y Jarrín fueron víctimas de tortura y violencia sexual durante dos semanas, mientras Vaca estuvo detenido por casi tres años, según la fuente.
El general Edgar Vaca, detenido en Washington y reclamado por Interpol Ecuador, ocupó diferentes cargos policiales hasta 2004, cuando abandonó la institución durante el Gobierno de Lucio Gutierrez que le otorgó dos de las más altas condecoraciones oficiales, señaló el Ministerio del Interior.
El Servicio de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas estadounidense notificó este miércoles que el general retirado fue arrestado y colocado en situación de deportación.
Because the news isn’t available in English, and it is newsworthy regardless, I did my best to explain the article. Thankfully numerous readers with more time at the moment were capable of translating it.
Conservatives are not the uneducated intolerant hillbilly’s that liberals portray us to be. I have no doubt that many FR readers are cultured people that understand the world beyond their immediate noses. Those that no even know where Ecuador is on a map, wouldn’t find it appropriate to bother reading it, right?
This story is also available in English from many sources. You were simply too lazy to find and use one.
Ecuador is of no concern to the US, nor are their generals or political infighting. We are not the world’s police, and that has nothing to do with being or not being a hillbilly as you are suggesting we are if we don’t care about Ecuador. I didn’t hear anyone but you call us hillbillies.
Interpol issued the arrest warrant based on substantial information of his guilt. To assume Obama is somehow guilty of something for following a valid arrest order for Edgar Vaca is lying about the material facts of the case. I hate Zero but this “General” was properly charged with crimes for which he was arrested and is being deported.
Ecuador is a third-world sh*thole and this general is most likely a guilty party of its corrupt government.
Eeew Code Toad.
You know nothing, understand nothing, and have mistaken me for someone who has the least bit interest in your opinions. You don’t understand, don’t opine. Your ignorance, or bitterness in life, or personal problems, that reflect themselves in your post are NOT interesting. Keep it to yourself.
Don’t like it, don’t opine.
If you don’t like my comments then don’t post the threads. That’s the way this works. You are a typical liberal in that you try to claim personal problems are the reason for disagreeing with you.
Maybe a liberal web site would be best for your interests. Supporting murdering third-world tyrants isn’t in our interests here.
OK, Let me explain things a little better CodeToad.
There are many people in the world willing to give up their lives to fight for their counties, family’s, and fellow men. I have warned people for years that Obama’s campaign, was JUST LIKE THAT OF CHAVEZ. I am not a liberal.
Besides the identical campaign slogans of Hope and Change, Obama also received a lot of unaccounted funds from the middle east. There are numerous international elitists funding Marxisms, and it is an international phenomenon.
Snowden, for example, is an example a man who did his duty and our government put a price on his head, along with using their media propaganda machines to label him a traitor. Ignorant people believe the deception and collaborate with the idea of destroying a man who gave up his life to support his country.
When a communist regime threatens the lives of officials, along with their families, for “crimes” that happened 30 years prior, you can assume there is something fishy, if you know anything about Marxism.
The fact that someone came to apply for political asylum and was thrown in jail at the request of a dictator is unprecedented. It shows that Marxist control has reached all levels of our government, and there is nobody willing to complain.
We are in trouble.
True, except Elian Gonzalez was a custody battle. It wasn’t hard to argue with the idea of sending a boy back to his father.
Political asylum is managed by the DHS, and you can now rest assured the Jehovah Johnson, another Oblahblah, appointee is a Marxist mole.

Jeh Charles Johnson (born September 11, 1957)[1] is an American civil, criminal trial lawyer, and the current United States Secretary of Homeland Security. He was the General Counsel of the Department of Defense from 2009 to 2012 during the first Obama Administration. Johnson is a graduate of Morehouse College (B.A.) and Columbia Law School (J.D.), and is grandson of sociologist and Fisk University president Dr. Charles S. Johnson. Johnson is currently serving as the Secretary of Homeland Security, and is the fourth person to hold the office. He was nominated by President Barack Obama in October 2013, and was subsequently confirmed on December 16, 2013 by the U.S. Senate with a vote of 78-16.[2]
Johnson’s first name (pronounced “Jay”) is taken from a Liberian chief, who reportedly saved his grandfather’s life while Dr. Johnson was on a League of Nations mission to Liberia in 1930.[3]
Jeh Johnson
Jeh Charles Johnson is a partner at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations (think tank), and was a governor for the Roosevelt Institute.
Note: George Soros is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations (think tank), and the chairman for the Foundation to Promote Open Society.
Foundation to Promote Open Society was a funder for the Roosevelt Institute, the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace (think tank), and the NAACP Legal Defense & Educational Fund.
Jeh Johnson, head of DHS, is a big Obama donor. He donated more than $33,000 to Obama’s campaign. Now that donation is paying off as Obama nominated Jeh Johnson to be Homeland Security secretary. Of course, can Johnson really be any worse than big sis Janet Napolitano? Johnson also donated thousand to democrats and has ties to Soros.
Obama/Soros appointees are entrenched in our government branches, with billions of dollars at their disposal. They are easily and effectively operating outside of the law, and there is no one media or watch dog, to blow the whistle. They are operating impunity. We are living in a dictatorship.
Now do you understand what is happening CodeToad?
But apparently impossible to invite the father to join the rest of the family here.
Well in a custody battle one could argue that Janet Reno was acting within the law, and at least their was some pretense of due process.
There was absolutely no due process in this case, no media attention, just another man jailed after being denied the Universal Declaration of Human Rights Article 14 which states that “Everyone has the right to seek and to enjoy in other countries asylum from persecution.”
Our government is breaking national and international laws with impunity. This just one small example.
